vice president harris started her campaign calling donald trump weird, saying she wanted to restore joyusly, a shift now casting trump as a real threat to democracy. do you think that kamala harris is giving voters enough reason to vote for her instead of just against donald trump? >> well, that's a great question. look, protecting american democracy, ain't nothing more important than that. protecting a woman's right to control her own body which -- which trump opposes, nothing -- to me, enormously important. the fact that donald trump thinks that climate change is a hoax in opposition to every scientist who studied the issue has also been important. if you're asking me do i think there should be more focus on economics, on the fact that over the last 50 years there's been a massive transfer of wealth from the bottom 90% to the top 1% to the fact that 60% of our people are living paycheck to paycheck while the billionaire classes never had it so good, while donald trump wants to give even more tax breaks to billionaires. you talked a moment ago with vance about their idea to eliminate a

the place donald trump is lying about. voted for donald trump. 61%. it is a republican town. not one of the thousands of trump voters in springfield, ohio has come forward to try to help donald trump push his lie about springfield, ohio. not one, which is worth keeping in mind for those of you that might worry about what disappointed trump voters might do on election day or election night or at any point they think donald trump has not won the election. i think they would do exactly what they did last time donald trump lost the election when it was called by the networks on saturday, november 7. nothing. there was literally dancing in the streets in american democratic cities, and there was the same, quiet silence from the losing side of the presidential election that we have always seen. that is what actually happened the day donald trump officially lost. a very tiny percentage of trump supporters decided to get violent in washington dc. two months later on january 6. but most of the people who attended donald trump's rally that in washington actually refused to go to the cap

donald trump was indicted by federal grand juries. me ask you, though, you said they're disgruntled employees. trump praised both kelly and milley and said kelly was, quote, one of the best people i've ever worked with in addition to those two trump national security advisers, two defense secretaries and even his vice president all say he's unfit to be president. why should the american people hire donald trump when the people who worked most closely with him say that he's unfit to serve? >> the people who worked most closely with him, most of them are supporting this ticket. you mentioned one person -- two people are disgruntled ex-employees, kristen, who donald trump fired. he said something nice about them and now he fired them and now that person is attacking donald trump and it's important because the american media has to be honest. why is it, kristen, that john kelly doesn't like donald trump? it's not about personality. it's about policy, and i think the american people have the right to know that donald trump rejected that joh

and loyalty to donald trump, i love donald trump and i'm very loyal to donald trump that i speak for president trump and i speak for myself loyalty first to the american people. that's why like donald trump because he's loyal to the american people. [applause] it sounds so common sense and it sounds so obvious that when you have a vice president kamala harris whose opening the southern border and giving free health care benefits to illegal aliens can we just get back to president who cares about the citizens of his own country? that is the responsibility of an american leader and that's why i support donald trump because he actually cares about the people who built this country and these fighting for their future, not the future of people who don't go along in this country in the first place. [applause] >> senator vance vance thank you for taking questions first of all. back in me senate democrats failed to carry forward the bipartisan security bill. you are among the senators who voted to filibuster and chuck schumer said donald trump is trying to pressure republicans to vote against

let's talk about what donald trump did tonight. he was at an event sponsored by this group linked to michael flynn. michael flynn openly called for suspending the constitution and having a new election in 2020 yet the trump campaign is currently saying his opponent, vp harris, is the radical one. on what grounds is he making that argument about her given what he is saying and doing and who he is surrounding himself with. >> is surrounded himself with michael flynn, someone who basically things the military -- by the way, as a retired general, things the military should basically be able to take over the country from the candidate he wants doesn't win an election so just flynn himself is about as extreme and radical as you can possibly get. i watched this rally tonight from beginning to end so that others don't have to know basically trump went in and professed his deep affection and appreciation and love for christianity and accused kamala harris of wanting to and christmas. >> well, she certainly doesn't want to and christmas. >> h

trump tavar, that is, in the territory of donald trump. trump now acts as a private person, and he has a very good relationship with putin, as he said. if donald trump wins, america first. hardly anyone...else in america could pronounce those words after two years of russia's war against ukraine. you are watching the weekly video podcast of radio svoboda state situation. today we are talking about what donald trump means by a fair deal for ukraine? and why ukraine was not mentioned at all at the vice-presidential debate in the usa. well, the navigator is the ear. the situation will be professor of political science at baylar university in texas serhii kudelya. sergey, congratulations. hello, rostislav. greetings. so what do we have? we have the fact that volodymyr zelenskyi's visit to the united states became politically balanced, precisely because a last-minute meeting with republican nominee donald trump. by the way, trump said after the meeting that he and zelensky are both. they want a fair deal, and trump repeated twice, talking about

we have heard donald trump say before that jd - level. ching, much closer to those missiles from iran and the chaos in the middle east than we are in the us. we are separated by an ocean. but people realise, when you have a vice president who is unqualified for thejob vice president who is unqualified for the job like kamala harris, bad things can happen. the borders are who allowed millions of illegals to enter the country, the last one in the room with the disastrous afghan withdrawal was made, and cast the tie—breaking vote with spending bills that caused inflation. the vice president matters. , . :, matters. the situation in the middle east, _ matters. the situation in the middle east, neither- matters. the situation in the middle east, neither of - matters. the situation in the| middle east, neither of them answered the very first question, what would they do if israel came to them and asked for a pre—emptive strike? it fora pre—emptive strike? it was a bit of a false binary choice. the reality is it wouldn't happen if president trump

donald trump's words. not one reporter ever asked donald trump about that statement. not one. the day donald trump called kamala harris supporters garbage, no one wrote a headline about that. it wasn't a news story. the poisonous american candidate for president who uses hitler's language constantly and calls democrats garbage, that was not news. but the very same news media that ignored all the times donald trump has called american citizens and american voters scum and garbage tried to turn joe biden's use of the word garbage into a controversial news story today. to do so, they had to refuse to listen to the actual sentence joe biden spoke. they had to refuse to look at the written words of that sentence. they had to refuse to understand english, grammar. they had to refuse to understand what a singular possessive is. they had to refuse to understand what apostrophe s is. they had to refuse to remember what they learned in elementary school about the english language. and they can do that because this campaign is being covered by some of the best reporters i have ever seen

and donald trump back where he belongs. of course the biggest difference that is a lot to say because there are a lot of differences. kamala harris is more of the same on this wide open seven border and donald trump is saying we are going to shut it down. we are going to build a wall. you're going to reimpose deportations and we are going to put american citizens back in charge of their own country. it is hard to overstate how bad, harris been on this. from the moment she came into the oval office, she bragged about undoing donald trump successful border policies. she said we are going to suspend deportations. she said we are going to make it harder for people legally in this country to get taken out of the country. she said it was dispassionate to allow mexican drug cartels to have free reign over united states of america. you know what -- putting out the sex trafficking and drug trafficking cartels have been doing in this country. she is not just rolling out the red carpet for illegal aliens. pommel harris is promising to

so would you be arguing that the donald trump that you saw during covid was more the donald trump as the executive he was before he was elected into office? >> he rarely was, in my knowledge of him and working with him and talking to him, because i knew him for a number of years in this particular period of time was that he was very good at selling himself. he was very good at telling what he did without actually doing it. and to a large degree, he followed along what maybe he learned what we did on the show because we created the persona for him, and he went along with it, and that was very much an advantage to him. but to a large degree, not true. >> we are less than three weeks before the next election. why are you writing this now? why not four years ago, eight years ago? >> up until '22 when i retired, i was a senior executive reporting to the ceo of nbc universal and comcast and it was inappropriate for me as an executive at the time. i wasn't in your position as a news reporter, i was an executive, and the company had policies about that sort of thing. i probably wouldn't have

jill stein's running mate says nothing about donald trump. says nothing about donald trump.amala harris and running for donald trump. the new york times interviewed bob mcmurray, a campaign volunteer for jill stein in michigan who said he voted for hillary clinton and joe biden but this time, his voting for jill stein. "even as he surmised that donald trump would be worse for gaza. i have been putting my entire life for the lesser of two evils. i am tired of it." i understand that feeling, bob. i voted for third-party candidates many times before the 21st century but i have never voted in a state where my presidential vote matters. massachusetts, then new york and now california. but my vote isn't going to matter in this year's election. because we already know who is going to win in california. your vote in michigan matters much more than any voter in california or new york or massachusetts or 35 other states. bob, you as a michigan voter has been entrusted by the founding fathers as one of the american voters who actually gets to choose the winner of the electoral college.

there was a story that went round last week about donald trump lending his plane to fly nelson mandela to the united states. the story is completely fictitious. in fact, trump's heir, he owned an airplane company at the time. it was on the verge of bankruptcy. they needed money from anyone they can get and they chartered flights inside the united states states to melton mound dose group at the market rate, they did no good deed. so why did that start story circulate? because i think it's upsetting to a lot of trump voters to face who this guy that he has never done a good deed in his life. he's never done a charitable act in his life. he's a monster in every way that people aren't comfortable doing that. now there's some like it. there are some who enjoy the cruelty and the brutality, but what was on display at the garden. >> but i think you're absolutely right, but most present every trump voter, most just deceit themselves are willing to be deceived and believe in a patent untrue is like he gave a flame for free to nelson mandela, which he did not do because otherwise, if he's really

donald trump believes he does. my pro tip of a day is if you need heart surgery, listen to the people at the mayo clinic in rochester, minnesota, not donald trump. the same goes for this -- i ask everyone out there, teachers, truck drivers, everyone, how is it fair you are paying taxes every year and donald trump has not paid taxes the last 10, 15 years? that's what's wrong with the system. there is a way around it and he has bragged about that. we are just asking for fairness. sen. vance: you say trust the experts come up with those experts for 40 years is that if we shift our manufacturing base off to turn it we would get cheaper goods. they lied about that. they said if we shift our industrial base to other countries, to mexico and elsewhere, it would make the middle class stronger. they were wrong about that. they were wrong about the idea that if we made america less self-reliant, less productive in our own nation, it would somehow make us better off and they were wrong about it. for the first time in a genera

that would be to ignore donald trump's own words. a vote for trump is letting him off the hook for him trying to overturn the 2020 election and his crimes for which he has been indicted. it would be for democracy and which is stands. democracy itself is at stake this year. they are willing to put their reputations on the line to vote for their country over their party. one of the conservatives is j michael. he made that point clear of his endorsement of kamala harris. voting for kamala harris, i assume her public policy views are vastly different from my own. i am in different as to her policy views on any other issues that america democracy, the constitution and the rule of law. i believe all americans should be. the 2024 election for president, there are no important issues for america. joining me now, previously served on the fourth circuit and one of the most respected legal minds in this nation. mike pence sought his advice about what the constitution says about certification of the college votes, it helped the country avoid the

i didn't know that donald trump had turned to the aide and said, so what. also didn't know that in a private lunch, pence had said to trump after he lost and sometime in mid november, pence had said to donald trump, you know, you may be you should just give it up. i'm paraphrasing here. and try to run again in 2024. and trump said, i don't know. 2024 seems like a long away way. another really striking thing here that isn't related to mike pence is that trump, jack smith has uncovered how donald trump basically sidelined all the campaign attorneys, or many of them, who said to him point-blank we're not going to win in this election fraud claim that you're making. we haven't won any of these claims. it's not going to work. that is when donald trump decided to announce that he was choosing some additional campaign leadership in the form of rudy giuliani, victoria tensing, her husband, and others who were telling what he wanted to hear, which is that he could stay in power even though he had lost the election. >> let me also read part of the filing that gives us

donald trump called it a host.hat we've seen out of their administration -- we've seen this investment. we've seen massive investments. the biggest in global history that we've seen in the inflation reduction act. ohio taking the technology that we invented and making it here. 200,000 drops across the country. my farmers know climate change is real. 500 your droughts. 500 year floods. what they are doing is adapting. this has allowed them to tell me , i harvest corn, soybeans, wind. we are producing more natural gas and oil than any time we ever had. we are producing more clean energy. the solution for us is to continue to move forward. climate change is real. reducing our impact is absolutely critical. this is not a false choice. you can do that at the same time you are creating the jobs that we are seeing across the country. that's exactly what this administration has done. we are becoming an energy superpower for the future. that's what absolute he makes sense. then we start thinking about, how do we mitigate th

[applause] that is why bobby kennedy endorsed donald trump, white tulsi gabbard endorsed donald trumpwe believe in persuading fellow americans and that's a big difference between trump and harris. governor walz mentioned yesterday, he talked about you count -- cannot shout fire in a crowded theater. that line is from a disgraced supreme court opinion. we believe the solution to bad ideas is to debate them and persuade our fellow americans. kamala harris believes the solution to things she disagrees with his to silence you and shut you up. it is disgraceful, anti-american, and we will not stand for it in donald trump's political movement. [applause] i'm going to take some questions from the media and i have to remind you that we have to look through harris's lies. she talks about all of her great plans, some sheet straight up copied from donald trump. you went to his website and copy and pasted it. she's going to put on a red maga hat next thing you know. if you got these great ideas, i've got an idea for you, want you do them right now because you're vice president? [applause] the sit

it was the calm, cool, collected kamala harris versus the chaos of donald trump. and i think that speaks to the way trump governed and would govern going forward with all kinds of chaos and the approach to kamala harris is taken not just in this campaign, but throughout her entire career, i've known or 20 years someone who's cams, someone who is cool, collected and who delivers for others, someone who's there for the people. and i thought she made a really important case, not just about our democracy being threatened in the risk of donald trump, but i thought she also laid out some really concrete plans on how she's going to make people's lives better while donald trump is injecting chaos and keeping an enemies list, she's talking about building housing for folks, making childcare costs less carrying for your elderly parent common sense things that are on the minds of the good people of pennsylvania and i would are you on behalf of the people on the minds of americans as well? and i think kamala harris hit it right tonight and did an excellent job and i thought the

from donald trump. it's the kind of rhetoric we've been hearing consistently. but you're right, he's dug in much deeper on it. and given repeated opportunities to say, no, i was speaking off the cuff or didn't mean that, he's making very clear that's what he believes. that the military may be used and may be deployed against people he views as enemies of the country, people like adam schiff and nancy pelosi that you're talking about. these comments put together with what we heard from general kelly, a decorated four star general, are fodder for vice president harris. she talked about them in a town hall with cnn last night, trying to make sure the choice here, how stark it is. what the country will look like. now different it may be if he is re-elected president versus her being elected president, mika. she is -- you know, we talked about the campaign of joy coming out of the convention in chicago and all of those things, and that's there. that was real. enthusiasm was juiced, and her numbers went way u

not invited by donald trump. the lawyer arguing for donald trump in that meeting was the now indicted john eastman, who is facing criminal charges in georgia and arizona for his alleged crimes of election interference in those states. in jack smith's filing today, john eastman is referred to as co-conspirator 2 and donald trump is referred to as the defendant. during the meeting the defendant asked co-conspirator 2 to explain his plan to pence. he presented two options, pence could unilaterally decide objections to electors or, alternatively in the plan that co-conspirator 2 devised the prior day, pence could send the electors to the targeted state legislatures to determine which votes should be counted. in the defendant's presence, co- conspirator 2 admitted that the electoral count add act forbade what he proposed and no one had tested co-conspirator 2's new plan to send electors back to the states. nonetheless the defendant repeatedly expressed a preference that state legislatures, to have state legislatures d

to donald trump's. he has been making the case about harris and now is on the trail with her. fox news, she drew over 7 million people. what you make of the number that she drew and mark cuban's involvement? >> mark loves to troll donald trump. the rival in terms of reality television shows. you saw the harris campaign bring him out because nothing annoys him more than the idea that he is a fake businessman, a tv businessman who did not really succeed. donald trump. he went bankrupt six times and relied on his father's money. mark cuban is a way to get under donald trump's skin. the fox interview, it shows that fox viewers wanted to see her in their territory. they will not watch a lot of the other media. they will only feel comfortable to watch her on fox to see how she holds up. she was not necessarily going to win them over but she got the message through for those who otherwise would have never seen her talk before. it shows that she is strong. she is willing to take on tough questions. he is not. h

but when donald trump was an officer, was donald trump, who we had a coalition of nations that had boxed iran's new killer program in the inability to advance it. donald trump pulled that program and put nothing else in its place. so i ran is closer to a nuclear weapons and they were before because of donald trump to pick a leadership. and when i ran shot down an american aircraft in international airspace, donald trump tweeted because that's the standard diplomacy of donald trump. and when i rainy and missiles did fall near us troops and they received dramatic brain injuries. donald trump wrote it off as headaches. look, our allies understand that donald trump is fickle. he will go to who ever has the most flattery or where it makes sense to him. steady leadership like you witness today, like you witnessed in april. both iranian attacks were repelled. our coalition is strong and we need the steady leadership that com layers is providing sen. vance at the us did have a diplomatic deal with a ron to temporarily pause parts of its nuclear program. and president trump did exit that deal. th

donald trump saying. donald trump's response was a written statement simply calling him a total degenerate. he did not issue a statement saying hitler did not do some good things. donald trump could have issued a statement saying that, but he didn't. donald trump knows that he has the american nazi supporters out there who are going to vote for him. actual american nazis. a small sliver of trump voters but he needs every one of them. donald trump knows he needs every total degenerate nazi voter in every swing state to vote for him. so donald trump cannot afford the lose a single one of them and that is why he refused to condemn hitler today and only condemned john kelly. what are the good things? what are the good things hitler did? that is the first question for donald trump for any reporter next allowed to ask a question of trump. what are the good things hitler did? hitler is known for trying to exterminate every jewish person living in europe and hopes to exterminate every jew living in the world. he

that's who donald trump is. those facts, those facts that we know about what donald trump did, including what he did when our capitol was under siege, those facts do not come from donald trump's political opponents, those facts come from the people closest to him. they are the ones who testified that donald trump did not want to stop the violent attack on our capitol. when he learned that vice president pence was not going to abandon his oath and help trump seize power, trump sent out a tweet attacking pence and further inflaming the mob. one of trump's aides testified that shortly after that this aide received a phone call alerting him that the vice president had been evacuated for his own safety from his office off the floor of the senate. this aide recalled rushing to the dining room to tell trump hoping that this information would convince him to take immediate action to ensure the vice president's safety. instead, after this aide delivered that news, donald trump looked up at him and said, so what. he said,

that is who donald trump is. those facts do not come from donald trump's political opponents. those facts come from the people closest to him. they are the ones who testified that donald trump did not want to stop the violent attack on our capital. when he learned that vice president pence was not going to abandon his oath and help trump seize power, trump sent out a tweet attacking pins and further inflaming the mob. one of his aides testified that shortly after that, this aid received a phone call alerting him that the vice president had been evacuated for his own safety from his office off the floor of the senate. this aid recalled rushing to the dining room to tell trump, hoping that this information would convince him to take immediate action to ensure the vice presidents safety. instead, after this aid deliver that news, donald trump looked up at him and said, so what? he said, so what? donald trump was willing to sacrifice our capital to allow law enforcement officers to be eaten and brutalized in his name and to violate the law and the constitution in order to seize po

just another day following bobby kennedy junior at a donald trump rally in madison square garden. ly normal. liz cheney is out there. [laughter] with kamala harris and there is bobby kennedy calling to protect women's sports at a trump rally. it is a realignment. it is unbelievable. the fact that it is here is even sweeter. imagine, just pause for one moment, imagine you are donald trump. you are from new york city you become famous in new york city, you have your fortune in new york city and all of a sudden the leadership of new york city will destroy you because they don't like your politics. [booing] yeah. imagine that where you. they tried to take everything that you have. they tried to put you in prison, they tried to put your children in prison. if that happened to you how often do you think you would be going back to new york city? how about never. and then he is here. it's like getting thrown out of a bar and you think to yourself, well, all of my friends are in the bar and you approach the door there the bouncer saying you are not allowed in here but from behind the bounce

so donald trump is in a nutshell her closing argument. quickly to charlie's point about trump and how he's prepared the stage for rejecting this election, in north carolina the person who is standing next to him was the congressman who publicly -- a republican congressman who refuted trump's own lies about the fema aid for hurricane victims in his own district and yet there he is standing beside donald trump endorsing him in the same way that ohio governor mike dewine refuted the lies about eating the dogs in springfield, ohio, and yet is publicly endorsing him. >> tonight donald trump was at an event sponsored by this group linked to michael flynn. michael flynn openly called for suspending the constitution and having a new election in 2020, yet the trump campaign is currently saying his opponent, vp harris, is the radical one. on what grounds is he making that argument about her given what he's saying and doing and who he's surrounding himself with? >> look, he's surrounded himself to your point with michael flynn, somebody who basically

trump: i'm donald j. trump and i approve this message. let me give one of the closing ads from the kamala harris campaign. this is 30 seconds or the title of this one is enemies from within. [video clip] >> donald trump, more dangerous and erratic than ever before. >> the worst people are the enemies from within. the enemy from within our more dangerous than russia. we have very bad people. it should be very easily handled by the military. >> i remember the day that he suggested we shoot people on the streets. >> a second term will be worse. there will be no one to stop him. unchecked power, no guard rails. we elect, again, we are in terrible danger. host: that ad from the harris campaign. the two messages that the campaigns are going for in the final days. guest: certainly, the trump campaign is hammering immigration, the migrant crisis more broadly. it links harris to that crisis. donald trump calls her the border czar, famously. the reason that he calls her that is president biden early in the administration had asked harris to take th

think about this, on day one kamala harris undid 94 executive orders of donald trump that destroyed hisful border policies. she ended remain in mexico. they suspended deportation. they stopped construction of the trump border wall. i've been to the border more times than kamala harris. if you go down there, you know what you see? big, beautiful slabs of rusted border wall sitting on the ground because kamala harris has made it impossible for american workers to build an american border wall and now she wants to lie to us and tell us that she cares about the border. how dumb do you think we are, kamala harris. we saw what you did and we don't believe you now that you're running for president. now, i will say to kamala harris' credit, every time she gives an interview we gain about 100,000 votes. and you know, the reporters will talk about how until yesterday, and of course that was a disaster, that kamala harris would only do softball interviews. we have any sports fans, any baseball fans in the room here? [applause] mr. vance: you know, as everybody who has ever played baseball or softb

what can we expect to hear from donald trump tonight? >> reporter: well, jonathan, the campaign wants the closing message to be all about immigration and the economy. those are two things that the campaign wants the former president to focus on. of course, we have seen him time and time again go off script and off message from that, but pennsylvania in particular, the economy as it pertains to energy. this is a state that relies heavily on its oil and gas industry. that is something that the former president knows and this is a message he has tried to deliver here time and time again. that is part of what we expect to hear from him tonight. look. pennsylvania, this is the state that both trump and vice president, harris have visited more times than any other state since july. this could really be the leachman in the entire thing. you see it this weekend. crisscrossing the state, he is outside of pittsburgh today. he is going to be in the philly area tomorrow, then in lancaster. we just learned moments ago that he will be headed to the st

donald trump fires them. and i'd much rather have the president who fires people who screw up now, jake, this is an important point. why are my kamala harris who did not fire my kamala harris did not find her pressed. mark milley, kamala harris did not fire general. i mean john, he fired a lot of those people, jake and he did because they weren't doing their job. but this is the thing jake, we've now spent five minutes. yeah. talking about people in donald trump's staff. we think he's not fit for office if sired who we think who bought it for all they didn't think he was unfit for office until they had a falling out with him because he fired them. and we're not talking about the public policy what we're actually talking about, how americans can afford groceries were actually, were actually talking about the fact that americans can't afford the cost of housing joining actually talking about fact that a lot of people out there and erie, pennsylvania, they're the ones who suffer and die when people like mark esp

from the washington times today, it is quoting donald trump showing -- he said donald trump showed shencompetent. what was your read on the takeaways from that interview? >> he did come at her with several tough questions. he led with immigration. he interrupted her a number of times. she seemed more prepared for that interview that she has been for previous interviews. she came prepared with an answer about how she would be different than joe biden. she said i will be having my own administration. i will be different. she came prepared with answers about immigration. she pivoted a lot to talking about donald trump. brett did challenger in many ways. she did go into the lions den. >> what is the al smith dinner? >> the al smith dinner is a traditional -- it is catholic run. a dinner that has been happening for several decades. the big lure to it is presidential candidates -- it has been tradition for a very long time, i cannot even remember the number of years -- >> i think it aids back -- it aids back to the 1960's. >> several decades. it -- presidential candidates go out there. payin

here is the way vice president harris set it at that packed rally in georgia tonight. >> donald trump intends to impose a 20% trump national sales tax on everyday basic necessities. that will cost the average family nearly $4000 a year. >> you know the opponent is worried in a political campaign when they use the language that the opposition is using against them to try to defend themselves. that is what donald trump did today in a desperate life of a social media post, saying i am not proposing a national sales tax as the democrats say in their advertisements against me. dems know what they're saying is a blatant lie. that, of course, is a lie. i am imposing tariffs on other countries that take advantage of us, hardly a national sales tax. these tariffs are paid for by the abusing country, not the american consumer. they do not cause inflation and will make america rich again. these tariffs are paid by the abusing country. that is the trump lie. it is a lie that donald trump is gotten away with for almost 10 years now because none of the reports that the new york times or the washing

what does donald trump mean?s that mean he will urge members of the military, leaders in the military to act independent of the orders of president biden in the pentagon? it's not clear. i want to let you look at a statement from a spokesman for donald trump. this is not an effort to suggest that there's a misunderstanding between donald trump and his former chief of staff, but it's an effort to denigrate the reputation of john kelly. you see this from the spokesman. he writes, quote, john kelly has beclowned himself. he failed to serve his president while working as chief of staff. he suffered from trump derangement syndrome. this has come up on the campaign trail minutes after michael published the stories talking about it on the campaign stage. >> let's listen. >> trump made it very clear that this is an election about donald trump taking full control of the military to use against his political enemies, taking full control of the department of justice to prosecute those who disagree with him, taking full cont

please vote for donald trump.e for me or vote for tim walz, e just want to say i'm so proud to be doing this and i'm rooting for you. god bless you and god night. >> senator vance, thank you. thank you both for participating in the only vice presidential debate of this election cycle. if i'm margaret brennan. >> and i'm norah o'donnell. a reminder, there are just 35 days until election day. please get out and vote. and for all of us here at cbs news, thank you and good night. ♪ maria: -- martha: all right. that was the debate. back and forth, the mics were open. we didn't hear anything about the port strike which they talked about at the top, nothing about ukraine burning issues at the u.n. that we talked about all week, the threats that we face in the world. overall, j.d. vance was strong out of the gate. he was -- gave a forceful defense of the trump administration on the economy and the border and iran, tried many times to reach women voters, i think, on a number of different subjects which we can talk about. v

have i talked to donald trump about his calls with vladimir putin? i've never had the conversation with trump in my life. even if it is true, is there something wrong with speaking to world leaders? is there anything wrong with engaging in diplomacy? kamala harris's approach has been to hide from the american people and hide from world leaders. you know what that has gotten us? we were on the world -- on the verge of world war iii. it is a complete failure of a foreign policy. [applause] one of my favorite donald trump moments of his first presidency, you may remember this. do you know kim jong-un? he is the leader of north korea. let's be honest. kim jong-un has not skipped many meals. donald trump goes to kim jong-un and he meets with him and all the photographers come in and president trump looks at the photographers and says all right, everybody. make us look good. make us look very thin. kim jong-un shoots up like this kind of offended a little bit. what it showed is -- i see a lot of you laughing. i'm not just trying to make fun of kim jong-un.

but i think what it shows is the chinese recognize kamala harris provides weak leadership and donald trumpvides strong leadership so they are trying to do everything they can to prevent trump from getting back in the white house. >> abc news. my question for you is do you have any reaction to the wall street journal report about elon musk and russian president vladimir putin being in contact since october 2022? do you have concerns about the national security aspect of it? >> i have two responses. first of all, elon is a friend and obviously a big supporter of the president and of mine. we are grateful for the support. but i'm not his post person. i will not stand up here and try to know everything elon musk has ever done. the second thing that occurs to me about this is it is almost like the democrats are running the exact same playbook 2016, but with different names in different times. here's what i know about elon musk. i know there's a lot of people in areas hit hard by hurricane helene who have internet service because elon musk has been working hard to make that happen. i know that e

it was people who worked with donald trump who called him a fascist. ead of the us military, general mark millet, who said trump was fascist to the core. then it was his white house chief of staff who said he fits the general definition of a fascist. kamala harris merely repeated what they had said. will this affect voters? there are many voters who are beddedin there are many voters who are bedded in with trump. there are many boats embedded in with kamala harris. but there are so many variables here, there are variables in terms of where young people will vote, but the young people will vote, but the young men who donald trump is courting and young women, their reproductive rights may be a keyissue reproductive rights may be a key issue to the selection. there's the question of where black and hispanic voters go. and most of all, where do voters go when you are talking not just about individual issues? but about the future of the us system. so, what i have to say is, i cannot predict multiple variables in the selection. i can tell you it is going to b

i think we know the answer as it relates to donald trump. >> mitch, you heard vaugn remind us donald trump lost new york by 23 points. >> yeah. >> why would he be at msg in new york city in a state he has no chance of winning? >> you know what, i love new york. i go to new york all the time. it's one of the great cities of the world. he's going to get his rump handed to him in new york. if he wants to go to the ballet and go to broadway and waste his time there, you know, because it is a waste of time for him. he's not going to win new york. there are nine days left. we have a choice to make in this country. it's the most critical choice that we're going to make. of course kamala harris is criss crossing the battleground states. she's been in wisconsin, she's of course in philadelphia today. she will be in michigan and she will go everywhere, talk to anybody to make sure that they know what the consequences of this choice are. i could care less where donald trump is today. i know where our candidate is and she's working really, really ard to make sure the american people are in a posi

that is who donald trump is. those facts that we know about what donald trump did, including what he did when our capital was under siege, those facts do not come from donald trump's political opponents. those facts come from the people closest to him. they are the ones who testified that donald trump did not want to stop the violent attack on our capital. when he learned that vice president pence was not going to abandon his oath and help trump seize power, trump sent out a tweet attacking pens and further inflaming -- pence and further inflaming the mob. one of trump's aides testified that shortly after that, this aide received a phone call alerting him that the vice president had been evacuated for his own safety from his office off the floor of the senate. this aide recalled rushing to the dining room to tell trump, hoping that this information would convince him to take immediate action to ensure the vice president's safety. instead, after this aide delivered that news, donald trump looked up at him and said

donald trump wrote it off as headaches. look, our allies understand that donald trump is fickle. he will go to whoever has the most flattery or where it makes sense to him. steady leadership like you witnessed today like you witnessed in april, both iranian attacks were repelled. our coalition is strong and we need steady leadership that kamala harris is providing. >> senator vance at the u.s. did have a diplomatic deal with iran to temporarily pause parts of its nuclear program. and president trump did exit that deal. she recently said just 5 days ago, the u.s. must now make a diplomatic deal with iran because the consequences are impossible. did he make a mistake? you have one minute. well, first of all, margaret diplomacy is not a dirty word, but i think that's something the governor was just said is quite extraordinary. you yourself just said iran is as close to a nuclear weapon today. >> as they have ever been. and governor, well, to blame donald trump who has been the vice president for the last 3 and a half years in the answer is you're running mate, not mine. donald trump
